Phantom's post above is just a reminder to all that there is a lot going on behind the scenes that the Administrator has to deal with. When he makes a decision to edit, ban, close, or pursue any other actions, it's based on things most of us will never know. At some point, we have to trust our Administrator and follow his lead, and personally, I do. That does NOT mean we can't submit a question on some action he decides to take. I believe a PM or phone call is most suitable for that purpose and I have found Tony to be extremely candid and forthcoming on all issues.

Couldn't have said it better myself HB!!!

RE: There have been vendors out there that we have welcomed to join our website and when their attitude is pfffffttt we don't need your members to sell our products .... they have only shot themselves in the foot

With that being said, we also need to remember we have Vendors who HAVE stepped up to the plate, became Supporters of this site. Vendors that do care about their Products and their Customer's!

I haven't dealt with all of them, but the 5 or 6 that I have done business with, I have had ZERO problems!

There's even a couple that I would never have known about if it wasn't for this site, so it's a win/win for everyone!

Go here and scroll down about 1/2 way to see a list of those Vendors: http://hondaf6b.com/cmps_index.php

Click on all those banners and you'll find TONS of stuff available for our bikes at competitive prices!

I thank you for the kind words.

Yes indeed there are things that happen behind the scenes that are nothing short of shenanigans.
I don't share with the board what transpired prior nor do I need to explain myself of why I make certain decisions, you can rest assured that I DO have the BEST interest of members first, vendors second, that is why I make the BIG bucks and what your membership dues are for . I am very tolerant and will give the members and vendors the benefit of doubt twice, third time ... see ya later, it was nice knowing ya!

We are a ELITE group of riders ....
PLEASE understand and remember that our F6B website is made up of HIGHLY sought after motorcycle owners with larger then normal disposable income. Vendors know that YOU have invested on average $16,000 - $21,000 on this motorcycle and customizing comes with the territory, Vendors know that many on here have deep pockets, large lines of credit and some on here are on a quest to see how many accessories the F6B can take before the fuses blow or the tires go flat .

EVERY vendor out there including some shady characters want a slice of your pie. I personally don't like to be taken advantage of, ripped off or lied to by a Vendor. Leaves a bad taste in my mouth and I do my best to prevent the same from happening to one of you. I want everyones experience with Vendors on this site to be positive and nothing less of that.

I recently welcomed a new potential vendor to our website and after asking him to take the high road (and he did for 12 hours) on a discussion, he reverted to mud throwing the very next day and I retracted my invitation. A reputable vendor will place a HIGH value on customer service .... it breeds customer loyalty. We deserve the BEST and when we pay for something we deserve 100% ... NOT 80% or 90% ..... ALWAYS demand 100%, unless you did indeed pay 80% .... you should always expect what you paid for.

Now allow me to return to what I was doing this afternoon .... counting and adding the membership dues so that I know how much play money I will have for my next vacation


Let's ride ....
